Vamoots RCS
Road riding and not having to skip that less than perfect surface that has been calling your name. Now you can introduce yourself properly.
The modern road bike that is more capable with higher volume tire accommodation and handling characteristics that will always leave you with the desire to go just a bit further. The Vamoots RCS (Routt County Special) is something we have been dreaming up over the years, making this the perfect match for rides with changing surfaces. The RCS comes with a NEW model specific fork that allows this bike to perform best with 32mm tires. Newly designed fast back seat stays, updated 3D printed dropouts, and our double butted RSL tubeset make this a formidable performer that will soon become your favorite road bike.
The bottom line: Smooth pavement, chip-seal, cobbles and smooth dirt roads are all on the menu.
